# Activities (*activities*) ## Overview Activities provide a way to monitor and control asynchronous operations on the server. In order to receive real-time updates for activities, a client would normally subscribe via either EventSource or Websocket endpoints. Activities are associated with HTTP replies via a special `X-Plex-Activity` header which contains the UUID of the activity. Activities are optional cancellable. If cancellable, they may be cancelled via the `DELETE` endpoint. ### Available Operations * [listActivities](#listactivities) - Get all activities * [cancelActivity](#cancelactivity) - Cancel a running activity ## listActivities List all activities on the server. Admins can see all activities but other users can only see their own ### Example Usage ```typescript import { PlexAPI } from "@lukehagar/plexjs"; const plexAPI = new PlexAPI({ token: "", }); async function run() { const result = await plexAPI.activities.listActivities(); console.log(result); } run(); ``` ### Standalone function The standalone function version of this method: ```typescript import { PlexAPICore } from "@lukehagar/plexjs/core.js"; import { activitiesListActivities } from "@lukehagar/plexjs/funcs/activitiesListActivities.js"; // Use `PlexAPICore` for best tree-shaking performance. // You can create one instance of it to use across an application. const plexAPI = new PlexAPICore({ token: "", }); async function run() { const res = await activitiesListActivities(plexAPI); if (res.ok) { const { value: result } = res; console.log(result); } else { console.log("activitiesListActivities failed:", res.error); } } run(); ``` ### Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `options` | RequestOptions | :heavy_minus_sign: | Used to set various options for making HTTP requests. | | `options.fetchOptions` | [RequestInit](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request/Request#options) | :heavy_minus_sign: | Options that are passed to the underlying HTTP request.
